    1. Destroying all statues worldwide is a righteous and a holy thing to do according to the bible, destroying a statue is not vandalism it’s establishing righteousness

    2. “We shall unleash the nihilists and the atheists and we shall provoke a great social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to all nations the effect of absolute atheism; the origins of savagery and of most bloody turmoil.
      Then everywhere, the people will be forced to defend themselves against the world minority of the world revolutionaries and will exterminate those destroyers of civilization and the multitudes disillusioned with Christianity whose spirits will be from that moment without direction and leadership and anxious for an ideal, but without knowledge where to send its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer brought finally out into public view. A manifestation which will result from a general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and Atheism; both conquered and exterminated at the same time.”

    3. @false prophet mohammed is a pedophile The Bible does not define Law and Order. Our Constitution does.

    4. @XTheCrystalBeastGuyX when the constitution contradicts what the bible says to do God commanded us to obey the highest law in the universe the laws of God in the bible

  1. So…. according to these thugs, if you dont like something, destroy it. Why worry about doing it legally? All of them need to be prosecuted.

  2. This country has become one third Demolition Man/one third Idiocracy/one third Revenge of the Nerds…

  3. Hey Nancy Pelosi, look! They are trying to tear down a statue of the founder of the Democrat Party!

    1. Its weird how you guys keep bringing that democrat stuff up. The 2 parties switched places/stances and yall know it but you guys keep pedaling that democrats and the klan stuff. You’re only making sense to people who think like you.

    1. Provoking/Enticing a riot is a crime. All of those there were guilty of that and deserve to be punished for it.

  4. Since Democrat mayors and Govn are not allowing police to protect American property, it allows American Patriots to defend American property. Patriots bring your guns – it is open season on Antifa, communist and anti-American anarchist.

  5. They believe they have the right to tear down a statute on their own. I hope they are prosecuted to the extent of the law. SMH.

    1. I think it will be the russian invasion of new york.. Statue of liberty will be gone.. It is already in the bible prophecy.. Revelation 18..
